This past week we were working on reading an autobiography by some lady and it talks about her life in Iran personally after reading this book I though it was very interesting to read but at times it got really boring but I was able to turn them all in but one of them I also think that some of the things that they did to the people that were arrested but I also thing that no one should have to were the veil if they didn’t want to but if I was the president of Iran I would change most of the laws they have their because some of the laws aren’t necessary. From some of the videos we watched I think that since they make all females were the veil. So I think that they should make all the men were some thing to because I don’t think it’s very fare for the woman to have to were some thing that they really don’t want to wear so I only think it’s fare for the men to were some thing to.

“Persepolis”
Persepolis was a good book because it tells what is happening in others countries like Iran or Middle East to be exactly. In those countries the woman don’t have a lot of privileges. I don’t know exactly why but 10 years ago they wore the veil if the woman didn’t wear it the police bust them. Right now the woman wear the veil half way than before, they are getting more and more freedom every day cause they raise their voice and ask for their rights.
When I was reading this book tons of thoughts went thru my mind cause people were killed and I though about America this is a free country how nice is that I think everyone wishes a country like America. People in those countries with problems like that are trying to get away and getting a better life in countries like America.

Persepolis
Some of the things I like about the graphic novel are, first, how realistic that the book is. I liked how she was able to experience being poor after living a rich life and being able to know why some people are poor while others are rich or just normal because it gives her the second opinion from the point of a poor person. Above all I liked how I was able to relate to her while I read because of the experiences she has had and the thoughts she has led me to think of new goals that I would like to accomplish based off of the thing that happened to her after the experiences. I was able to relate when she got herself into a position where she was only able to rely on one person and was really close to that person.
Some of the things I didn’t like are how she editorates some of the things that happened to her or people she knew. I didn’t like how she focused on some of the tortures that people who were in prison had to go through, although that is what they wnet through a lot of the time. Some things that the human kind does to eachother isn’t something that a lot of people like to focus on.
What I think that purpose of Persepolis is to show what it is like in countries that you are or might be at war with. I think that it is also to show what the effects of war are on families that are richer than the normal because it is those families that have to fund the wars that go on during their rich stage. We get to see what it is to go from being rich in a country that is at war to a country that isn’t at war, still being rich, to being in a country that isn’t at war but being poor instead of rich. I think that seeing the effects of that transformation is what we are supposed to get out of the book.

Today I'm going to w4ite on my experience here at Summit High. Upon arrival I had a lot of doubts about this school. It's closed campus, has a small choice of classes, immature and rude students, and an unreasonable short lunch. But, as the months slowly rolled by, I learned a lot more than I ever could have immagined. The teachers and staff are exceptionally pationt and helpful. I have high respect for all of them. But, the one I hold the most respec for is Doug. He has one of the purest hearts I have ever seen. He cares for each and every student he works with. I fortunately got to study here on his last year before retirement. Even though things didn't work out, and our relationship fell to unfixable peices, I learned much more about myself and life from being with Sarah, than I ever could have by myself. I'm very thankful for all the help and support from Doug, Jared, and all the teachers I've had. Even though most of the classes are easy, it still takes some commitment and desire to have good grades. So even though I miss my old highschool, I have no shame in saying I'm a Summit High Graduate.
THE BOOK “PERSEPOLIS”
I think that I have read better comic books (graphic novels) than that but I don’t know. What I liked about the book was the sense of humor in the book and how much info she gives in the book, but I didn’t like the fact that I was not able to get into the graphic novel like I can usually get into another book so I was constantly bored with it. I think that the meaning and purpose of the graphic novel was to tell us how hard life was in Iran. Would I recommend this book to a friend? Probably but I don’t know if I would recommend this book to anyone I kind of didn’t like it. I predicted that her parents would die in the end of the book and that Marjane is going to be alone, but I was way off, but I’ll leave the end of the book for you to find out yourself.

People are flawed in many ways. It is those ways that a lot of religions try to help us focus on more, and it is also these things that would help us a lot it we focused on. One thing is that we are in the moment more than we realize.
Many people are so in the moment that they don’t realize the horrors that are going on around them. They don’t realize that there are others. We know that there are poor people and rich people, but they don’t acknowledge them, they don’t even notice them. They go on living and their life is the group range that they are in which is based off of their age and their money. That is what divides all people including and especially Americans and others into social classes and castes of which people venomously reject and say that they don’t live them.

Persepolis
Honestly, this book was kind of disturbing to me at first. The first half was hard for me to read because I wouldn’t be able to survive with a government so controlling over everyone’s life. And I think she acts really foolishly after she leaves her parents for Europe. It’s like she was confused about herself and didn’t know what she wanted. And she creates a lot of drama for herself and for a long while doesn’t do anything about it. But it was an interesting book, and kept me reading on out of curiosity. I’m not sure about why she wrote this, but I think she wanted to show that even through the toughest challenges, we can still come out on top and succeed. She wants to teach and show us the challenges and hardships of her and her family’s life. So hopefully everyone that has read her autobiography has learned something new about life.

I don’t really like it. It’s all the same somewhere out in the world. Some girl is going through the same thing she went through. So really it’s all the same there no real story behind it. As a biography its okay but in ten years there will be another biography about the same thing. I thought there was no point. I didn’t like the book. I had no feeling really just boredom. Her life just dragged on and on. She didn’t do anything to help her country. There was no adventure to it. There was a war her parents didn’t want her to get hurt so they sent her somewhere to live. She had a hard time cause of her race everyone does at one point or another.

Today may the 15 I’m going camping with my friends from the church we’re going to somewhere that it’s two hours far away from Eagle Mountain.
I need to meet Hermano Williams at the church this afternoon to be exactly at 4:00 pm. I can’t wait because I’m so exited about the horses and all those animals. We are going to ride horses. I’m really good at it because I learned when I was like five or six years old. I can’t remember what age I was but the point is that I learned pretty young.
I’m going because I have to cook for the little boys out there. Also because I like to spend time but all those little guys and of course I’ll teach those guys to ride the horses. Like I said I can’t wait for this journey. We are going for two days or three I don’t know but I hope to be there for a while because I need to relax myself to think about the future because I’ll be out of this program as soon as I get my next court day. So that’s why I need to take a break and think what I’m going to do with my life.

This is my opinion on the book we are reading. Well how they will feel about the things that happened. I think it’s possible but I think it is stupid. They are idiots. Anyways. I think they will be satisfied because that is what they have been fighting for. Do you understand what I’m trying to say. This is what they wanted so I guess they are happy with it. But then thinking about it they are going to have some hard times so I think they will start to cry about something else. It’ll be hard for them because of the change. But I think they will survive. But all in all It’s a good book kind of inappropriate but this book has a meaning which I’ll figure out later on in the quarter. Well I better go. See you later

Challenges
I think that a way that many people deal with challenges is by either ignoring them or giving up. This is the way I used to deal with problems of almost any kind. I believe that people only do this with their challenges because they don’t know how to deal with them and when they get used to this, they learn to push anything away that they don’t like. That way they don’t have to do anything that would consist of a challenge.
I think that if a person were to try to get out of this behavior then they would need to, first, ask themselves how long they want to do that because, I believe, that the conscious has complete control over the body, its movements and the effects of anything that happens to the body. I think that you would first have to change the way you think because it has effects on what you do and why you do it.

Well ok today has been a pretty good day over all for me.
Yesterday I went into my work to get my paycheck and I was surprised because it doubled from my last one I got, but as I went in there earlier today I talked to my boss so I can get more hours and I did.
The only bad thing was that I can only work 30 hours a week. I mean it sounds like a lot just for a week but it’s really not. I did 40 hours a week when I worked at Macey’s but I like this job a lot better at subway then I did at Macey’s.
Plus while I am working my hours, my paycheck is also going to be doubled.
One greater thing about my day is that I found out that I am going to be getting a Moped in about a month. As soon as I earn at least another 600.00 dollars and that will be my next two paychecks. So I am very excited I will finally have a different kind of transportation besides the bus now.

There are a lot of things that are going on in my life right now. There are many things that are happening and I wonder as I watch and go through these trials what will come out in the end. I am so tired of a lot of things that are happening. It seems as thou there aren’t many things to choose from and these walls are closing in around me. People are leaving my side and I stand hear by myself, but I see someone who is my light of hope I cant tell who it is yet but they seem to be the one for me the hope for me.
All I want is to know who it is but I am blind to the light wait is it one or is it two. I cannot see past this way of light to tell if it is one or two but all I know is there is someone there for me and they are hear for me. Slowly and surely some light fades but the other is still there for me and as I look on I hope it is the love for me. I can not tell at the moment but surely in the future I will be able to see my angle my queen my saviors face all I know is now I feel strong not lost for this ray of light is hear to guide me. There is hope and many more paths to take pleas stay with me for I am in fear of being lost many lights have shone but now they are gone and what I see is you and my life seems brighter, stronger and greater. I hope this stays but how it seems in the past things like this will never last but I hope and I pray for the one day that I may hold you for the sake that I will never lose you to this way of the world.

Have you ever been locked up or put in to a situation wear you feel like there’s nothing you can do? Well I have and I you this story would be something worth reading. It was a normal day just like any other I was feeling good because I was going to meet up with my girl cousin and are friend Kim. Well I was in Ogden this day and it was about nine in the morning I woke up to go meet Kim and later we would go me my cousin. Well the day was going as planned until I got a call that I had to go to d.t for the weekend no big deal ive done it before. It was said that I would go in for the weekend. This is wear my story begins.
My first days in d.t. wear normal I sat and waited for a hearing I thought things wear going good until my hearing came and they said I would be leaving and going to o&a for forty-five days well that’s all good right? Wrong! I did my time and did well I had my problems but did what I was supposed to do as my court date came and went I found out that I would be going to a program for six months.

As I kept to my-self answering questions when asked she told me if I knew how long I would be in the program I said yeah six months give or take me doing good. She said no youll be in there for about thirteen months. I said what as the wind was took from my lungs that’s insane they told me six. well they told you wrong. she told me well I was there for six months until I left because they said I wasn’t doing good enough so in total I was locked up so far for about nine months. As my time went on I went back to detention I stayed there for about a month while I was there I saw my good friend alma we talked and then we both went to court after court I found out I was going to another program

Adversity and Challenges
The adversity I have gone through was mostly what me brothers put me through. Things that were challenging to me were trying to make one life where I act the exact same way around everyone, no matter who they are. This goal I have had for almost a year and am still trying to accomplish it. Other challenges for me are finding new ways to make my time with me family really special because I don’t get as much time with my family as I wish I had.
Things that I intend to find challenging in the future are building houses to their extent, my meaning would mean it to be virtually perfect – to their maximum potential. I want to find building houses hard and giving because if they become to easy then I will probably find building them really hard. I find things that are boring hard to do because I don’t get anything out of it. Doing things that are really boring is my greatest adversity because it isn’t rewarding at all.

This is on one of my journals on the book “The last book in the universe” and I didn’t think it was a good book because it was not my type of book and things like that. If I were to change some characters I would have had Jesus as one and the devil would be there to always trying to make people do bad things and committing sins like killing people and destroying towns and stuff like that, but that’s just my point of view on these things. In the end of the book I would have changed the fact that when bean was better they sent Spaz home and then the old man Ryter dies and stuff I wouldn’t have sent them home and would have let them stay with bean and then the old man wouldn’t have died and there would have been a better, happier ending to the book and it wouldn’t be so depressing.

“If you’re going through Hell, keep going.” Winston Churchill. This is an excellent quote because if you give up and stop moving forward, your situation will only get worse. But if you commit yourself and continue to improve your situation, you will find that you are stronger than you thought and can overcome even big challenges.
“The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.” William Shakespeare. Even though something of yours was stolen, if you smile and continue to be happy, you take away the thief’s control over your happiness. But if you become angry and bitter, you’re giving the thief control of your emotions and the problem. But the problem is it’s so much easier to give in to the anger than it is to control yourself and stay positive regardless of what was taken.

Well I’m still working at my job subway and I’m doing well. I like it a lot. To start off it’s like my whole life is turning around from what it was before, and I think I can keep it the way that I want it to.
I like my job I’m at. I got my phone back that I’ve been waiting for along time, and also I found out as soon as I graduate this year I am going home and off of papers.
I can’t wait until that day happens I’m way excited, and the great thing about it is that I get to the place were I wanted to go as soon as I get out.
My court date is June 17th and that is going to be the day that they are going to let me off of paper and I’m not going to be on probation either.
As soon as that day happens my family is going to throw a big party for me, graduating two things, graduating high school and graduating out of the program.

Honestly I would go live in Canada there are many places i would like to go live in but I chose Canada because in a lot of ways it is like the U.S.A I think that is why I would go live there it is different in some ways but it is different in some ways but it is still much like it. I love my country I can say that for sure. It would be different to live there but it would be nice. Sometimes I say I am going to leave hear and go some wear out side the U.S.A somewhere where I could get a way for a while. One day it will happen but until then I will have to do what I have to do so that can happen all I got say is when you get knocked down get back up and keep pushing through all you pain one day everything will take course just help set your own path so in any case I would like to go to a lot of places with a someone who I can call my love laugh out loud but is it true to get away with someone I care about. but yeah so basically that’s it for this post

My life since I turned fifteen has pretty much a living hell. I have been put into and taken out of two foster homes within a time period of three months and they both sucked ( yes the one I’m in sucks.) but there have been some good things too, like: great friends at anew school that I thought I wouldn’t fit into. The schoolwork is pretty easy too. I had a girl friend but that only lasted about two weeks. But I’m getting over that pretty fast. (mostly because I have to because she doesn’t want any thing to do with me.) Another bad thing about the school is that I have to get up at five in the morning to get ready because the bus comes at six in the morning, and I have to ride the bus for two hours. But other than that life is great.

If I could live anywhere
If I could live anywhere in the world, I would live in Tokyo, because of all the fast street racing cars and because it would also be a new experience too.
A new country ive never been to this country so it’s going to be fun like to check out all of the places there and how they act or react to things in their own way.
I would get to eat new food that I have never had before but I heard that Tokyo food is pretty good so hopefully I have nothing to worry about.
The only problem I would have is that I would get lost at first while I was there so I would need too scope the whole country so that way I would’ent get lost when I went somewhere there.
I would also need to get to know some people while I was there so I would not be lonely and also because I would need to hang out with someone constantly need to talk to someone because I am a very talkative person.

A new country ive never been to this country so it’s going to be fun like to check out all of the places there and how they act or react to things in their own way.
I would get to eat new food that I have never had before but I heard that Tokyo food is pretty good so hopefully I have nothing to worry about.
The only problem I would have is that I would get lost at first while I was there so I would need too scope the whole country so that way I would’ent get lost when I went somewhere there.
I would also need to get to know some people while I was there so I would not be lonely and also because I would need to hang out with someone constantly need to talk to someone because I am a very talkative person.

I’ve often wondered what lyrics or poems originally mean to the author. That’s why there are so many different songs in the world that mean different things for different people. What I have noticed is that most songs in a certain genre all talk about the same thing. Country music for example; I’ve heard a joke about country songs. It goes “what do you get when you play a country song backwards?” The answer is your dog, your job, your wife. I think that the song that has the most meaning to me… well, there really isn’t one. I’ve had a pretty good life. I started listening to music only 4 years ago! Before that all I did was hang out with my friends. The lyrics of music though may have pretty much no meaning at all in some cases. Some techno music has some repetitive words. They don’t even mean anything. Another example is the new alternative rock crap, or whatever it is called. Songs on stations like X96. I hate X96. All they sing about is retarded things like clubs in my opinion.

Change
If I could change the ending of a book, I wouldn’t change the end any book endings. If I did, the book would mine, and if I wanted to create a book, I would try to.
If I had to change the ending of The Last Book In The Universe, I would put another conquest where Spaz goes to a different planet much like his own and meet a mercenary. He would start a settlement with many different kinds of people and animals, a latch to protect the community, and himself as the latch boss. He would create things he was in Eden, like grass, sky, streams, hills, etc., and he would go to war trying to protect those creations from being destroyed or conserved in one single spot.
The other societies would try to take the community, which the main hero (the mercenary) has, and try to keep the colors and the substance, which they conserve themselves in, in the spot they own. The main hero meets a woman who takes him on a journey to save Spaz from the coming armies.
Now you can see why I don’t write books. :P

The Last Book In The Universe
I really enjoyed this book, and I’m satisfied with the way it ended. At first I thought it was kind of unnecessary that Ryter died and his book burned. But it did leave room for a more meaningful ending. Billy Bizmo being Spaz’s dad was quite surprising, but it made perfect cense. I didn’t like the ignorance of the “Proovs”, but I did like the generosity of Lanaya and her family.

Narrative Introduction
“Yes I’ll go to your house after school” I said this to my best friend in 2006 we used to talk a lot about his family and my problems but he never told me about his cousin Yadira. The first time when I saw her I didn’t fall in love but I thought that she was good looking lady. I said what’s up yadira. Are you doing something today? Cause I thought that might we can go to the movies or somewhere tonight. I was nervous but I knew that she will mine.

When I was 5years old my little sister was born it is my earliest memory I have.
We are at the hospital my mom just went into labor. I’m scared for my mom. I keep asking my dad if she is okay. We are there all night. I’m getting sleepy. There is nothing to do. I heard that there was a baby I want to see. All these things go through my head. As I wait in the hospital.
Later when it’s blue outside my grandpa comes and gets me. We go home I’m kind of happy to leave but I’m still worried about my mom. But I still want to see the baby. We go home my grandpa tells me to go to sleep when I awake I ask if mom and dad are back with baby. He says.
We get a phone call my grandpa answers it. The baby was born! I’m so excited. The next day mom and dad come back with baby. Mom holder it I ask what it is they tell me it’s a girl. I say like me. They say yes. My mom bends down so I can see the baby. I look at her. I whisper hi to her. She is so tiny. I look at my mom and smile I finally see baby. They tell me her name is Myra.
She has been there for awhile now. I’m starting to get mad because my mom and dad are spending their time with her. They don’t play with me anymore it irritates me. So I start being mean to Myra. I would make her cry. I was so bad. But no one could punish me because my grandpa wouldn’t let them. So I got away with it. But to tell you the truth I’m still mean to her to this day. But I love her.

Narrative Essay. By Anthony
“Who’s there?” – No answer.
The second house I remember moving into was an interesting house. It was easy to see why, unless you didn’t live in it for a while.
“Why do you always steal candy that I buy?” my mother always told me. I knew exactly why she said it to me. Something in the freezer was missing and I loved to get into it. I was the notorious thief that they couldn’t catch, only accuse. I knew I was guilt for some of them, but I blamed my little sister for the rest of them, knowing that she wouldn’t without me.
“I don’t steal it.” Nobody would believe me. I would usually find it by the washer, in a dark corner, and throw it away. That’s where they would catch me, the worst part. That’s why they would blame me almost every time something wasn’t right.
“You never believe me.” They never did believe my sister or I. We were the only ones who would take the candy. Everybody else was my mom’s little angel. They never realized that it wasn’t always my sister or I. We just seemed to be there at the wrong time.
“Who’s there?” – No answer--. There was never an answer. I could swear that I saw something there although I could never prove it, especially when I wanted to. There was one time I saw something out of the corner of my eye that decided to give me the chance to turn my head in time. They were always over by the washer in the dark room.
“I swear I saw something there.” My mom only believed me when she saw an old man that wouldn’t go. She had previously seen something, looking like one of my brothers, go into a closet and not come out, but not be there either, when she came and looked in it. I don’t get how she didn’t believe me.
“An old man used to live there”. one of our neighbors told us. NO. That verified it.

The day I surprised everyone
When my parents had the neighbors call the cops on me I was so scared because I’ve never been in this much trouble before especially with the law.
So the a cop came to talk to me that day, I was so nervous I just told all the truth that I did so I wouldn’t get into anymore trouble then what I was already in.
That next day I went to school and after my step was waiting for me in our driveway so she made sure I came home.
When I got home I had to do so much work until my dad came home, but the bad thing was when he did get there we had another long talk about what I’ve been doing and I having talks about the same thing over n over again it bothers and irritates me so much.
So the next day I didn’t go to school and in the morning the cop came n picked me up and took me to D.T., it was the most frightening moment I think I have ever had.

When I first found out I was moving I was excited I wasn’t sure I was going to tell any one though. I really didn’t have any friends then but I told some people before moving and made a couple friends. When the day came that I had to move I hated the fact that I had to move.
Well after six months of living in Orem it was the last day of summer the next day would be the first day for seventh graders. I had just got a new cat while I was getting in bed I was thinking, “what would I do if my house caught on fire?” I fell asleep and was woken by screaming and yelling I pulled my drapes up to see what was going on at first it was just an orange blur then my eyes focused and my neighbors house was on fire. I grabbed my cat and put my shoes on the house were filled with smoke and my windows blew out. It was the scariest moment of my life.
I still went to school the next day and I made great friends during seventh and eighth grade I failed. Cade my brother thought it would be better if I went to his old school the one he graduated from which was summit high school. I did really well my first two terms after Cade left I started not caring for my grades when Cade came back he was disappointed and made me go back and make up all my grades. If I had cared for my grades I wouldn’t have to do all the work and im glad he made me do it.
After going to summit for about six months I started hanging with a bad crowd. I started to smoke I didn’t mind the first time cause I thought it was just a one time thing it wasn’t I did it more. My mom found a smoke in my bag I finally realized how far it had gone I realized I didn’t want to smoke anymore and finally quit. I honestly believe that if I would have never move I wouldn’t had seen what I seen or done what I done

We went to the movies that day and it was awesome because I kissed her. I felt butterflies on my stomach, I knew that something was different in my mind cause I used to think about her every time even when I was in my bad days.
This is how the relationship started. We used to go out every weekend and have fun. When I moved myself to another city that’s when we had problems. We talked about it and we made a deal, which was that we’ll keep in touch every day. At first was easy but later was difficult because I had other stuff to do. One time I didn’t call her for a month she got crazy and we broke out.
I didn’t care when she said that because I knew that she loved me and she will be back in less the three weeks. I was normal like if nothing happened to me one day I decided to call her and I told her that I was sorry about what I have done that I needed a second chance.
We were together again and I thought that this time was for ever. I was just 16 years old when I decided to make I tattoo of her name on my chest “I thought it would be cool gift for her”. I went so many times to visit her because she couldn’t go to visit me but we built a excellent relationship until I decided to choose another girl.

Narrative Introduction
The brown bird
One day we got home and were taking food inside. We finished bringing groceries inside and forgot about are garage and left it open. And later that day we went to the store and bought lumber to build a big tree house in a tree that we just cut the branches off of.
And it started to build it and it took us tree days to build it. On the second day we left our garage open for about three hours and when we went inside for lunch. I heard some thing making a weird noise like “chirp, chirp, chirp”
and flapping around in our garage. At first we thought it was a bat or an owl and so we grabbed it with a fishing net. It turned out to be a brown dove so we pulled it out of the net and let it free!!

Age 16 the day I shocked everybody I know
It all started when I was outside in the backyard and my dad came home. He was just finishing feeding the animals when he said “Landon when your done watering the horses then come in the house we need to talk”. I was in my mind I hope its not about what I’ve been doing lately, but when I went in my dad told me to take a seat on the couch.

Narrative Introduction
As I opened the door, I had my headphones in and I was listening to one of my favorite songs. I really wish I hadn’t because there was my mom sitting there with my brother and boxes packed. My mom asked me to sit and told me we were moving. I realized then this was no joke and asked, “Were to”? “Orem” my brother answered this time he sounded mad. “When”? “Two weeks at the most.” “Ok” I went to school the next day and kept quiet I decided that I would just disappear. I wasn’t ready to leave I had lived here for my whole life. Two weeks went by fast. I was checked out and headed to my new home and worried. It was going to take some time getting use to it. On my way there I learned two things 1. I found something I hated 2. I knew this could be a good or bad thing I wasn’t sure. Ive now lived here for 3 years and learned that although I hated it I loved it. I made new friends and completely new that if I had not moved I would have never met the people I did.

This One’s for You
You done so much in life.
You cared for everyone,
Loving them with heart and soul.
Your big heart was your crowning jewel
Bringing joy to those around you.
You showed me the stars
And taught me to be happy.
To me you were a friend,
And a brother as well.
You sacrificed the riches of money
For the riches of love and compassion.
Your life was full of meaning
With love and service you gave to others.
You made me laugh
Always full of jokes and fun.
You made a man out of me
Teaching me how to love
And to share love with others.
You were a mentor to me
As well as a teacher and an idol.
So when I think of you
I will remember this,
Because this one’s always for you.
This is for you Adam, I love you, man!

There once was a guy
That did nothing but lie
He always got in trouble
So he stayed lonely in a bubble
And he was sad for the rest of his life
There once was an elf
He always took his time on things
He only thought of himself
But he drank red bull and grew wings
So he flew away onto a little shelf

Death is when your loved ones must depart
Death is a sharp pain to the hard
Death is a feeling of permanent sadness and pain
Death is when your loved ones have forever gone away
Death is a call to heaven or hell
Death is a eternal mansion or cell
Death never will go away
Death you’ll find in your ways
Death is not to be scared death is to be engage.

Wind whispers again
The name I loved long ago
Calling me to her
To be hers again
To keep the love I loved
I hold her again
The woman I loved
We will be meeting again
In the place we met
I need to go back
To the place I loved once ever
There she waits for me
I went to the sea
And yearned to be mine again
To be on my ship
This ship will never sink
It lies where none can touch it
It is the mountains

Haikus
Snow mountaintops,
Bright by the light of the sun,
Melts to water drops.
The lonely wolf walks,
Far from his unpleasant past,
Howling at the moon.
Limerick
There once was a western cowboy,
Whose gun was replaced with a toy.
He was challenged to a duel,
By a fat drunken fool,
So now here lies poor old Roy.
The Dark Cave
Walls of rock, and a floor of sea. A dark hole of mystery lies in the rocks as a mouse hole is in a wall. Swarming around you is the rhythmic and peaceful sound of flowing water. Walking into the darkness, like a curious cat checking out a new place. Amazement and curiosity moves you forward, while looking back fills you with fright as the safety of light leaves with each step. The small but bright beam from the flashlight shows a small piece, like a clue gives a small amount of knowledge.

The small but bright beam from the flashlight shows a small piece, like a clue gives a small amount of knowledge.
Life.
This is something that goes through my mind every second of every day. I have no way to tell when it is over. I have no way to tell when to quit. The thought of throwing the towel keeps racing in the back of my mind.
I have dream of a perfect life.
Where I make no mistakes. The thought of me in a dark room using the nasty things that cause me to be this way and then the last sound I hear is bang. Light out time for my dirt nap.

Love is a thinking pain.
Every time she comes around I feel the pain.
She is a problem worth thinking to solve.
I can’t help but to put my mind to it.
Love is all she makes me think about.
She came into my life and loved me.
Then her and me created the most wonderful
Thing in the world. That wonderful thing is little Jayvid Marcus Roberts. Then she made a mistake and we cannot be together. I know now that we were not to be together.

The happy relaxing place
This place has a nice view to it. It has a lot of environment around it, like rivers and cliffs, mountaintops.
It is a place where you can go by yourself or you and another person that you love and you can spend a real good long time with.
It’s a great looking place where you can’t get distracted, you can just go relax and have a real good time.
This secret place you go to it and you can go have a good time.
There’s just sometimes where you need to go and have some alone time, and just relax, this is the place to go the place I am talking about one of the best places to be.

2pac
In English class, we listened to Changes by 2pac. I really like that song because there is so much truth in the lyrics. We are all fighting the wrong war. Instead of battling each other, we need to battle poverty and hunger. I also like how he can tell his story, and say what he has to say in a way that flows and sounds good. I may not know a whole lot about 2pac, but jus by listening to this one song I know much more than I did before. It’s such a shame that he was killed. He had a lot of good things to say, a lot of wisdom in his words. He was right when he said, “mama didn’t raise no fool.” Personally I think we all need to take a step back from our crazy, hectic lives, and take a look at who we are, where we are, and what exactly is going on around us.

The Picture
If I were in the picture I would be thinking about nature, how beautiful and peaceful it is. I would explore the surrounding area to see what I could find that hasn’t been ruined by unnatural things, like humans.
If I could I would walk in the grass of the hill and stare into the water to see if I could see the bottom of the water, I would memorize the position of every rock, dip, and hill of the land- every flow direction, tiny tide, depth, and color of the water.
I would like to fall asleep to the sound of the still pond and the light breeze making little ripples in the pond.
One of the things I like more than anything is nature. To me, nature is beautiful, and I think there are very few things that can rival nature in beauty.
One of the things I wish I could do it to show everybody how beautiful nature really is without the mutilation of human nature.

Killing your inner devils
By austin
If it wasn’t for that one mind game played like a seizure
Then we wouldn’t be in this class.
We would be the teacher of not following every man who says he is a preacher
But who’s more or less a demonic creature.
Who will play mind games and beset you in the same chair in which he
Will try to defeat you .
It is up to you to to get in touch with your inner power to not sit down
And give up like a coward cause with the
Devil something that sounds sweet underneath is only sour.
So stand up , show him who should be the coward , fight back
And seize the hour!
Glorify and immortalize to what now is in reach to be your prize,
Savor the sound when our inner devil cries as he tries , tries ,tries to defeat you
And immobilize but he will only realize that no matter
How bad he wants it this is your prize you earned inside and ill
Be damned if anyone testifies , look into his eyes , don’t give in
And wipe his tears when he cries but make him
Feel the pain till he commits suicide .

What is life like?
Life in a desert was sandy
Life in caves was lonely
Life in ocean was salty
Life in stars was resplendent
Life in the car was modern
Life in the mountains was exhilarating
Life in sun was brilliant
Life in your life is my life
This poem is one of many about life, I like this poem because is mine. I think has a good message. It trying to say the life is in everywhere. We have to take care about our environment like we take care of ourselves.

Today is Friday once again. We have no school once again on Monday. Here goes another long weekend with out my sweet pea. I’ll be positive so I don’t get all depressed. I love David so much. He is my life. We have so much fun together. He makes me laugh all the time. He is a sweet fuzzy head. Tonight I might get a ouija board how ever you spell that. I’m so excited. I hope David has a good weekend too. I love listening to music and dancing. I also love taking pictures. I like to model in front of the camera. I want to be a model. I know I will sometime in my life. I’m pretty confident in myself. I’m quiting smoking. Lately I’ve been stressed out but about good things. Im excited to start cosmetology .

Marco’s Autobiography
My name is Marco. I’m 17 years old. I was born on September 27. I was born at Payson hospital. I’ve been in the U.S. since I was in kindergarten to the 6th grade.
When I was in the end of 9th grade, we moved back to the U.S. I’ve been here every since.
The first time I ever got in trouble with the law was because my ex-girlfriend ran away from home and came to my house. From then on things just went downhill. I began abusing alcohol, marihuana, cigarettes, etc. I got into a well known gang and began getting deeper into the system.
Ten months ago, I got caught and sent to Slate Canyon Youth Center. I was then sent to The Journey: Rising Phoenix the group home that helped see things at a different angle. Now I’ve been able to stay sober for about seven months and gang free for about six.
I live life with no regrets and try to make the best out of crappy situations. I believe that if you’re going to do something don’t do it if you’re going to regret it. Do it because that’s what you want. Learn what you can from every decision you make instead of dwelling on how it didn’t turn out your way. Be grateful for what you have. Take some time to really appreciate the things you have and how much it means to you. That is why dwelling on a crappy situation doesn’t get you anywhere but more negative. Be grateful for the things you do have and not pissed off for what you don’t have.

The band led zeppelin
This band looks like a great band that has a lot of enthusiasm.
There are a couple of lines in this song that I like and I am going to tell you
There’s still time to change the road: I like this line, because I think it is saying when you have messed up in your life then there is a road you can always take that is way better and it makes it so your not in trouble anymore.
Your head is humming and it won’t go: I like this one because I think it is saying that your mind is always thinking of something; it constantly has something in it.
You will never not think of something your mind will always be thinking in the mind.

Today is a great day because everyone is so exited for our three day weekend. We can do a lot of things probably some people go to the movies tonight or others just having fun in their homes, but I do not care because I have my mind on my birthday. Yes tomorrow is my birthday. I’m going to be 18 years old. Awesome HAHAHAHHAHA I can’t believe this I feel too fresh to be 18 years old. I don’t have a lot of experience.

I hope my Sister, my mom, my brother and my friends call me to say happy birthday Carlos. Could be nice from them but if this doesn’t happen I wouldn’t care cause I have to have fun on my birthday.

Revenge
Revenge is black
black for the secrecy used in it
Revenge sounds like silence
silence for the soundless murder
Revenge tastes like blood
blood after the knife slides between ribs
Revenge smells like fear
fear of the coming danger
Revenge feels like sorrow
sorrow for the betrayal it shows
Revenge is of anger
anger to be aimed
Anger
Anger is red
red for the burning
Anger sounds like blaring
blaring from the release
Anger tastes like pastry
pastry for the joy of it
Anger smells like fire
fire burning you inside-out
Anger feels like strength
strength of the wielder

Ambition
The desire to distinguish ones self from other people.
Ambition is satisfied when:
You have billionaire as a job title
To show the world you can do it
To build a dream car for the real world.
Searching for hope in others
Preparing for the unthinkable
Show the brilliance others couldn’t see
Show others why they’re alike.
View the world form the top
Discover a new world of opportunities
Open the doors, provide the opportunities
And who knew you could do it?
Only those who’s will it is to dream.

Freedom
By Adam
Freedom is a bird soaring through the sky.
Riding fast along an open road, wind blowing swiftly through your hair.
Taking a walk, after a spring rain shower.
Turning the key to a brand new sports car.
Hiking through the canyon, with the sounds of nature in your ears.
Baskin Robins with no price limit.
Spending a weekend in Moab, Utah.
An empty stomach at an all you can eat buffet.
Freedom is that moment when you truly feel alive.

Freedom
I always think of freedom no matter where I’m at in my life because I think everybody should have some freedom in there.
If you don’t have any freedom in your life then that is un-American. Everybody has to have freedom.
In all of the United States all people have to have some kind of freedom, and if they don’t then they are just going to have a horrible life everyday.
Say if your not in the system then you have all the freedom that you want, but if you are in the system like I am then you have some freedom while your in there just not as much as you will want or as much as if you were not in the system.

Freedom
Freedom is something, something you only get when you work.
Freedom is beautiful, beautifully leading the way to a new life.
Freedom is hated, hated for the power it gives.
Freedom is loved, loved for the peace it grants.
Freedom is tarnished, tarnished for the jealousy of it.
Freedom is relished, relished for the kindness it shows.
Freedom, for all it is, it is also nothing, nothing for if people have it to long they forget to love freedom,
Forget to see the beauty of it, forget how much it is hated,
Forget why it is tarnished, and forget to relish of freedom.
Freedom is not respected, but freedom respects others, others for the respect they give it.

Over the last two months I have been reading books and investigating journals on the life of Kurt Cobain. It has just amazed me how a jury could not convict someone as guilty as Courtney Love. Some how she had something to do with her husbands murder. I realize that she is famous so many people would stick up for her.
I have studied the incident. I found that it was not suicide. When they did the autopsy they found that Kurt had 400 cc of heroin in his system. That is more that the human body can handle. Plus he had shot himself in the mouth with a shotgun. With is much drugs he had in his system he would not be able to hold the gun. So it is a mystery waiting to be solved.

Hamlet
I think hamlet’s attitude towards women are, a lot meaner then a normal guy’s attitude towards a girl, he has more aggression and actually use’s physical strength.
He use’s too much force with the women, like he doesn’t have any respect for women at all and just has too much anger, but not hurt them on purpose just yelling at them constantly.
His attitude towards Gertrude is a lot more aggressive then at Ophelia, because he forces her to do stuff and forces her to be down and towards Ophelia all he does that is attitude is aggressive is that he yells fiercely at her with a lot of voice coming from him.
Normally a guy wouldn’t when just talking to a women would always yell at or towards her and use force on her, but in this case Hamlet (the man I’m talking about) does all of that, when usually your not suppose to, but in this case I guess it would be acceptable since it’s Hamlet.

Today I am going to tour the Taylor Andrew’s Cosmetology school. I’m taking the UTA after school gets out. I can’t wait. I’m not sure which beauty school I want to go to yet. I am interested in learning more techniques on hair, nails and make-up. I think it will be a good experience to learn all of them instead of just make-up what I mainly want to study for. I know I have the potential to get big in it and become a professional. I can make my own business and make good money. This is one of my goals in life I am going to succeed in.
My second goal is becoming a model. I know what I can do to start off with getting noticed by agencies. I need to take a face shot and full body shots of myself and make a portfolio with my pictures in it and I can send them out to several websites where people will notice my beautiful pictures and want to take me in as a model. I’m not saying its going to be easy but its different with everybody. I have enough confidence and motivation towards my self that I can do what ever I dram of doing and no one can stop me.
One of the other goals of mine I had in mind was acting. I would love to be in movies and become a famous actress. I would want to play in a variety of movies like scary, funny, and action. I know I would be so good in that category. I have the energy for it too. I would be a good actress in movies. Ill be one of those actors in a movie that everyone knows would be good cause ill be starring in it.

Hamlet Final
Women
Hamlet believes that his mother was whored by his uncle when she married his uncle after swearing that she wouldn’t marry after King Hamlet died. Hamlet also believes that she should stay away from his uncle’s bed to repent of the sins of whoredom. Hamlet thinks that his mother will go to hell if she doesn’t repent.
Hamlet believes that Ophelia should go and become a nun. He thinks that if she does this then he would be allowed to do what he thinks he should do. He believes that if he marries her then she will betray him and become a whore to another man. Hamlet believes that becoming a nun would help her life as well as his.
Hamlet believes that all women should stay single and become nuns because they, in his opinion, would betray the man they were married to. He thinks this because his mother betrayed his father (whom he believes to be perfect in all prospects that his uncle isn’t). If all women were single then men wouldn’t have to bear the pain if the woman they loved betrayed them. It would also allow men to be dominant because they would seem perfect by those around them, men could show no emotion.

I think that there are a lot of things that I could relate to hamlet in a lot of different ways, but I think that the biggest way that I do relate to hamlet are first I have been having trouble with looking at pretty much everything around me in a negative out-look. I have noticed that I tend to get really depressed and frustrated through out the day and it just seems to get worse every day. I have been trying a lot of different ways to fix this problem but I think that I have not been able to do any real change with it. I have tried a lot of different things such as talking to people about how I am feeling and trying to figure the root of this problem. I really wish that things would get better but it seems like things only get worse.

My relationships
Yah I have had many bad experiences with break ups with girls and all of them sucked because they all hurt me.
I didn’t like them that much either in the end, especially the last one I was in. I think that one was the worst of them all because I thought she had my heart with her but I was wrong and she broke my heart. It hurt me so bad, but the bad thing is that I’m still thinking of her a lot.
I think out of all my relationships only one of those girls I dated really had true feelings for me and had a good reason to break up with me, but I will be al right. There is plenty of girls out there for me that won’t break up with me, treat me, and understand me how they should.

Friends
Friends always have ups and downs no matter what. If there were no fights, it would streghthen friendship but fights strengthen friendship too. When you have fights and you and your friend work through it, your friend ship stregthens cause you both over came a difficulty.
Doesn’t matter if your friend took your lipstick or a movie. You need friends with out friends you would be helpless no one to help you no one to talk to you would just be lonely.
Anyone who says that they have no friends it’s a lie. People who believe that they have no friends think that there is no point to live. One of my best friends took her life this year cause that’s how she felt she would sit there and tell me I was her only friend.
My friends have helped me so much I cant say how much. Friends are always going to be there for you friends are friend’s cause they are there for you they want to help. My favorite thing to do is see my friends just to get out of the house and go somewhere.

Doesn’t matter if your friend took your lipstick or a movie. You need friends with out friends you would be helpless no one to help you no one to talk to you would just be lonely.
Anyone who says that they have no friends it’s a lie. People who believe that they have no friends think that there is no point to live. One of my best friends took her life this year cause that’s how she felt she would sit there and tell me I was her only friend.
My friends have helped me so much I cant say how much. Friends are always going to be there for you friends are friend’s cause they are there for you they want to help. My favorite thing to do is see my friends just to get out of the house and go somewhere.

Forgiveness is when someone says they are sorry and you then know that they wont do it again so you don’t have to worry and you can then trust them again. For someone to be forgiven I think they must show that they are really sorry and that they will not do it again. They need to show emotion. I don’t believe that there are things that are unforgivable but I think that some things depending on the person should not person

How was my week!
Well guys this week was like the other ones and like always because I don’t have nothing to do just school and the same routine I’m sick of it. But what can I do about it? I don’t know, but the only thing I know is I have to stay in this program until I get myself ready to be in my own. I think that going to happen this year around September. I feel good about it because right now I’m trying to learn a lot in the school, but like I said I’m sick of this routine cause always is the same thing. I have to wake up at 5 o’clock every week day and be ready a the bus stop at 5:50. I ride the bus to the school and I ride the bus back to my home at 2:40.When I get home I child in my room until my proctor get home and then we start make the dinner for all of us, and after all this we go to bed. The weekends are different and we don’t have a routine for it.

Today I think I’ll just talk about my week. My week has been pretty good. Last weekend I got into a little bit of trouble, but I didn’t have any privileges taken away. I did however get grounded from my X-box for a week or so. But that is only because I gave my proctor attitude. School has been good; as well as work. I work 3 times this week, and get paid next Friday. I go to cash my last check today and buy some shoes. Therapy has been going well to. So my week has been alright, I enjoyed it.

Today is Friday and I’m feeling really emotional and depressed and overwhelmed and anxious all at the same time. There is nothing wrong its just I have so much on my mind and thinking about everything at the same time and when that happens I get anxiety cause I don’t know what to do and then I freak out and start crying and then I get really depressed. I miss my man so much every second I’m not with him. David is so good to me. I’ve never in my life have been so happy in a relationship until ever since the day he asked me to be his lady. David and I are unbreakable and our love for each other is so strong and forever. The best thing about our relationship is that were faithful and honest with each other and we both show a lot of affection and love towards each other and were not afraid to be our selves. We are so real with each other. David and I are best friends also. We enjoy spending every second we get together and making each other laugh and smile. We share all our secrets and memories with each other and talk about anything and everything in the world. David is so caring and respectful. I cherish and adore just the smallest things he has given to me like the time he plucked out feathers from his pillow and gave them to me and when he pulls out an eyelash from his sweet eyes and gives them to me to keep or when he gave me these two green and red plastic little fruit loops looking rings that he found and gave me them cause red is his favorite color and green is mine so I put them on his necklace that I wear everyday so there is always a part of him with me any where I go. David has made such a positive impact on me and he motivates me to doing good in life. David and I are two very smart and unique individuals and are both natural leaders in life, that we connect so perfect together we equal each other out. I’m the type that will act before thinking and David is the type that will stop me and talk to me about it first so I can make a better decision than what I would of done before. David is my other half and I’m so thankful that I’m his and he’s mine
I don’t think schools should have uniforms because it hides every ones identities. If uniforms was the policy then that’s just giving a new rule to break. Students are not going to succeed in that category if you know what I mean. A form of identity is showing who you really are in life and being noticed and unique. Every body’s style is different. It is very important that students learn to be them selves and show their own uniqueness that way there would be more leaders than followers in the world. if every school had uniforms they had to wear everyday then I don’t think school would be much of a conferrable happy environment anymore. It would be rather depressing wearing the same thing everybody else is wearing every single day. What you wear gives people some what of an idea of your interests and maybe your personality too. It helps others know what to kind of expect or get ideas of what to talk about if you just met them. By the school taking away

Hello guys I want share my feelings with you guys. I’ll talk about this school and this class, Matthew’s class. This is my first week in this class and I like it because this guy is the coolest white boy I never met in my life. I really enjoy this class cause this is my last year in the school and I know than I need to have fun each minute in this school.
What can I say about this school? this is the easiest in the world. I love summit high and I learn something from each guy around. My the first day when I came to this school I thought this school was for fool’s. I thought that cause my foster parent’s told me. Now I know they told me bullshit because three months ago I was talking with them and I said summit high is better than Lehi High. He said what did you say and I said I say my school is better than Lehi High because we are a team.

Essay on cell phones
Well I think cell phones are an important tool that can help and support you in your life.
I see were all the teachers don’t want students to use their cell phone during class, it’s a big distraction, but banning our cell phones from school is going to make our lives even worse by not having any contact with any of our friends outside of school.
The reason why I say that is because what if there was an emergency that just happened you will want to know about it real soon and we will have to have contact with other people too.
What I’m trying to get to is that our cell phones are an important devices to us and our lives.
We need to have or cell phones with us at all time. It’s just an automatic thing that we need for emergencies and other possibilities, but we should be able to etleast use them during breaks or at lunch if were not able to use them during school, so I don’t see why they should ban our cell phones from school.

My favorite kind of music
There are many kind of music genres I like to listen to, and one of them is hip-hop. I love hip- hop music it has a beat and a certain sound to it that makes it amazing.
The two types of music I like is rock and rap.
Genre does matter because each person has a different kind of genre of music they like to listen to and it should be respected. I mean if u don’t like it then u don’t have to, but they do and that doesnt mean you have to go and tell them to their face. That music sucks that’s your feeling about it so keep those comments to yourself.
Then after that you shouldn’t have any problems because you got your music and they got theirs.

Cell phones in school
There could always be an emergency like if there was a fire. I don’t believe people would stop to use the school phone. If we pulled out our cells to call our parents, who’s to say the teachers wouldn’t take our phones away? If my mom emitted to the hospital how would I know? If I couldn’t take my phone out without it getting taken away?
Friends could be hurt or doing something harmful. There are a lot of reasons that kids need their phones.
Communication-if for some reason I was dying on the floor and no one knew my number wouldn’t they have to check my phone? But if I didn’t take my phone to school I could be in trouble. I understand that they would call the cops. They would have to call my guardian also.
If I got stuck at school and they took my phone away during school I wouldn’t have a ride home. Maybe friends could be stuck in a harmful situation but how would I know that if we were not aloud phones. Family could be in trouble with rides. If I missed the bus I wouldn’t have my phone.
More interesting-well when the teacher isn’t doing anything more kids are likely to text. My theory is that If they were aloud to have there phone out they would listen more to the teacher it is a privilege to have the phone out. School would be fun. 50% of kids ditch school so they can text allow phones and more kids will come to school. and if like 95% of kids went to their school wouldn’t that make that school get a better review?
As a student I beg that you allow us to bring our phones to school based on the facts there are plenty of good reasons that could allow it please consider that the phone could really help the schools and more of the kids attitudes so please help me to make this school more interesting please just consider it

Backpacks
Backpacks should not be allowed n school for multiple reasons. The first reason is because carrying a backpack can cause injury, the second reason is because kids can bring illegal items, and the third reason is because it messes up the classroom. In this essay I will prove my point.
Back packs should not be allowed in school because carrying around a backpack can injure your back. My little brother is in 7th grade and his backpack is like a ton of bricks. He is always having backaches. C.F Medical weekly says that is raising the cases of scoliosis in youth. My not allowing back packs in the school kids will have better packs.
Today the crime in youth is raising, backpacks are starting to be a front for this. A lot of kids use their backpacks to bring drugs to school and sell or use them. When I went to my old school I used my backpack to conceal my tazer at school. This is another reason backpacks should not be allowed in our school.
When I walk in the classroom and sit in my desk and start to do my work I get distracted easy, especially by clutter. When I look around and see a lot of backpacks, I, along with others, get distracted from our work. All the backpacks make the room look like a mess. That’s the final reason backpacks shouldn’t be allowed.
In conclusion backpacks should not be allowed in our schools. Due to kids having bad back problems, carrying of illegal items and it causes distracted clutter.

“Driver’s license under 18 years old”
Most teenagers in this times likes to drive a lot even when they don’t have the require age to get a driver license they only like 15 or 16 but they don’t take responsibilities for their acts so that’s why I’m disagree with give them driver license at the age.
One of my reasons is they’re teenagers they don’t take care about the other people on the streets they probably can get drunk and drive. They don’t even know the consequences they can kill someone just for be irresponsible.
The teenagers are not adult’s they can’t have those privileges because they don’t work, what happen if them crash its car probably the car hasn’t insurance because the teenager doesn’t has money to pay for it, teenage drivers is a high risk on the streets.
The most important reason is because they will race on the streets just for make some money like illegal business they don’t care what could happen to other persons they just want to have fun.

Since I can remember, school has been five days a week. But I think that now is as good a time as any to change this. In my opinion now is a good time to take Fridays out of the school schedule. In this essay I’m going to tell you the reasons why I think that we should take Fridays out of the school schedule and here they are.
The first reason that I think the schedule should be changed is that the teachers would have more time to think of and create new lessons. I have seen from experience that when most teachers have time to think of new things they tend to come up with are things that keep the student’s attention. So now imagine that a teacher gets a whole day take time and just sit down to think of new things to do for their classes. I think that this would especially help the teachers get the attention of teenagers, which a majority of teenagers struggle with keeping focus in school and their school work.
My second reason is that I think the students will end up learning more. I have noticed when a teacher has taken time to make an interesting lesson the class is much more likely to pay attention and be interested in the lesson. I know that I enjoy a class more when the teacher has taken time to prepare the lesson than when the teacher is just teaching the subject right out of the text book, which is really dull and boring.
The third reason that I think the schedule should be changed is that the students will be happier to have more time to relax and also that they will have more time to work on their homework. They will be more likely to pay more attention to the school work because they are more rejuvenated and awake.
These are my reasons for believing that Fridays should taken out of the school schedule.

I think that I like mostly three types of music and they are 80s rock, heavy rock, alternative rock, some reggae, country, and rap. I think that I love 80s rock because I first of all I love that era’s guitarists. For example I think that Jimmy Hendricks, and Eddy Van Halen are in my opinion the greatest guitarists ever to live. A good example of Eddy Van Halen ‘s great performing is once when he was doing a concert he came on stage really drunk, fell on the ground, and while he was lying there, he started to play. He did amazing at the regular part of the song for being drunk, but then he stunned the crowd by playing the guitar solo with excellent precision as though it was nothing. Then you have Jimmy Hendricks who played the guitar with excellent precision behind his back like it was easy.
I like a lot of bands like ive listened to more and found out that there is a lot of music that I didn’t know. Just depends I honestly love music. I just don’t have anything that plays music or any cds. I don’t ever get to listen to music. Music? Depends on my moods.
Is there genre of music I don’t respect? I have no comment on that question mostly cause a lot of people listen to different music. If I diss on a genre of music I could be offending someone. There are different genres of music for a reason. Yes there is a lot of music I hate. I live with listening to it so friends get a chance to listen to there music. Their is music ive never listened to so of course I give that music a chance.
I believe music does have an impact on people’s life. If I have music I am happy and will do anything to keep that music but whatever.

Music
I am in to mainly hardcore music because the heavy breakdowns brutal vocal and very talented drums. Sometimes I like to listen to indie music as well. Just really mellow stuff. I like music so I can throwdown at shows and get crazy. My favorite bands are For today, Sleeping giant, means and the acacia strain. If music is bad then its because it’s either crappy rap that is just written by some studio producer just so it will get on the radio or some boring twangy country music. Genre doesn’t really matter to me. It’s more about the talent. I have respect for any genre if they have talent. The problem now with most music (especially on the radio) is that they right the songs just so that they can get them on the radio and they sellout. I view music differently being a musician, and having the experience that I have because I have been on two tours and been in and out of studios, actually write the songs I play and have played tons of shows. The best genre of music though is hardcore because the guitar and bass requires tons of talent . The drums are near impossible to play and the vocals are powerful and very meaningful.
Grant
Grant
Music
I like most all music, but I’m mostly fond of hard rock. My favorite bands are KoRn, Disturbed, and Linkin Park. I also love the Kottonmouth Kings. Bad music is mostly opinion. But when I listen to music, I like a fairly fast beat; cool sound, good voice, good lyrics, and I listen to the way the band plays. I don’t like slow or soft music, it bores me. I believe all genres of music are good in their own ways. All music is art, and everyone has their own opinions and perspectives. I like music that sounds good, and the lyrics have meaning behind them. That’s why I like the Kottonmouth Kings. Their lyrics are mostly spiritual, and have a lot of meaning to me. They also have some of the same beliefs about life as I do.

If you were giving advice to your sister about dating what would you say?
What if you were giving advice to a friend ?
If I was giving advice to my younger sister about dating then I would explain a little to her about the way most guys really think because usually there intentions are not the most innocent. If I was just a friend talking to a friend about dating, then I would let them know the same thing but I wouldn’t regulate who they date because there not my family. Because if they don’t listen to my advice then that is simply their problem.
If you were a father giving advice to your son about getting a job what would you say ?
If I was a father giving my son advice about getting a job then I would tell them to not be picky when looking for a job because almost any job is better than no job at all . I would also give them advice to look the employer in the eye when talking to them, to dress nice, have respect and sow that you have a real interest in getting the job. When they get a job then I would tell them to never be late and to do their job to the best of their abilities .

To day is Friday 16, 09 and that I have court in two weeks. I am scare to go to court and the reason I am scared is that I don’t know what they are going to say about me if I am going to go home or get three mouths again. I am not really weary about it because I am doing really good in my proctor house and that I do what they tell me to do. I am going to get a home visit on the 30th this mouth and that I am going to stay down there tell Tuesday the 3rd of next mouth. I am so excitied to go on my home visit and have fun with my family.
Today I am going to go to ice skating with my proctor brother and that I cant even skate on ice, it is going to be my first time ice skating on the ice. I hope that I will not fall on my ass will I am there. Put I hop that my mom will call next week so that she can tell me that she has her incomtaxts from the stats.

I think the advice I would give to my sister (if I had one) about dating is that first, that most guys our age are looking for pretty much one thing and that is sex. Second , I would probably say that she should make sure she controls her emotions so that she can keep a clear head so she does not do anything that will get her in trouble or get herself pregnant. And third, I would say that she should be very careful with who she gives her heart to so that she does not get really emotionally attached to someone, and they end up leaving her. Then she falls into pieces which makes it hell for those around her.
I thought about it and I have decided that guys that have sex with a girl, does not wear a condom, and then leaves as soon as that girl gets pregnant, so that the girl has to take care of the baby by themselves, needs to have the crap beat out of them because they are so damn stupid and irresponsible that they can’t deal with the mistakes that they make.

How long should someone grieve after a loved ones death?
Depends how much you loved that person because I love a lot of people and I really don’t care because I believe resurrection and everybody after death is going to be resurrected when the messiah comes back for the second time to this earth. After that, I can still love people like I do right now that’s why is so important believe in Christ because is alive like us. I’m trying to get everybody to my God. I mean our lord. If we follow Him, we can get a lot of blessings. Well my friend that’s all a have to share with you. You have the rest find god in your life.

If someone real close to you died, it is a good thing to grieve the death. But, realize that your still alive, and you need to focus on that. So, greiving and feeling sorrow is a good thing, but don’t get consumed in their death.
The death of your spouse is very tramatic and often leaves you feeling lonely. So, depending on your beleifs and values, remarrying can be a good thing. But, only after you have gotten over the death and aren’t lost in greif and sorrow.
I would be supportive. I would help my mom or dad accept and get over the death, and would be as open minded and supportive as I could. Even though it would have a huge impact on my life, it is still his/her disicion.

I would be supportive. I would help my mom or dad accept and get over the death, and would be as open minded and supportive as I could. Even though it would have a huge impact on my life, it is still his/her disicion.

It would take my mom as long as it takes her to get over her husband or any body in my family if they died.
If my parents were still together and my dad died, then my mom would be so sad cause she has such strong feelings for her family especially her husband.
I know she would never remarry because she will have the feelings for my dad that are too strong that she will never forget him, and she will not want another man in her life. So in that case she would never remarry.
That’s just how she is. She’s the kind of lady that when she has been in a relationship for so long and loves that man so much, and then he dies then will not want another man in her life because she won’t want nobody else just her loving husband.

Hamlet: Prediction
I really don’t think the ghost is evil. I mean who know if its his father or not. I think that if the ghost is his father that it will tell hamlet the advice that he needs to know. Like about the war and other things the meeting will make the story change to like more action. There will be more suspicion like towards the uncle.
More questions more answers. More fighting hamlet will possibly fall in love.
The ghost might still come around and people will go hectic. The war will happen something will go wrong etc… Basically things wont be calm nothing will.
Hamlet will almost die!! He will be stabbed after he kills his uncle of course and he
will live and become a hero. Marry blah! It will be a happy ending or a tragedy
He could die.

On my break all I really did was sit at home. It was kind of boring in a way. I didn’t see any of my biological family, which really sucked. On Christmas my foster mom’s sisters and foster kids came over, which was really great! I’m glad that they came. I got to see a girl that I have a crush on and it made my Christmas even better. She ended up telling me how she felt about me, which really amazed me because I wasn’t expecting it. She told me that she did have feelings for me, which made me really happy. I think that now she told me she liked me then I can keep control of how I act around her because before she told me I was really anxious. I want to act on it, but I don’t want to loose a chance to be able to see her. Onto another topic, winter sports. I like hockey because it’s fun to watch people get it fights on the ice. I like to play football in winter because it gives you a rush to work harder to try to keep warm. I don’t like the snow because it’s wet and really cold and it gets everywhere. I was asked if I liked to drive, which I do just not in winter. Utah drivers cant even drive in summer what makes you think I want to drive with them on the road in winter. When I first started to learn how to drive it was in a go-kart in Idaho and where I was from I could drive to the store as long as my uncle or brother would follow us. It’s way too dangerous for me to drive with others on the icy roads because I have road-rage

Today is the last day of the year 2008! We have a two and a half week winter break. I am so excited but I think it’s really dumb that people don’t say Christmas break anymore. I think that all the other religions should just not be so offended because this is America and we celebrate Christmas here not all the other ones. We don’t try and get rid of your religions so why try and make us stop celebrating ours.
This break I plan on doing a lot of things. First this Sunday is the day my girlfriend and me have been together for six months so we are going to do something special. For me six months is a long time because I usually am only with a girl for about a week and hardly ever is it any longer than that. We also want to go snowboarding because I’ve never been before and she wants to teach me. I’m really excited because I’m kind of an adrenaline junky and love to do crazy things. Hopefully I don’t do anything to stupid and get seriously injured. My girlfriend and me also want to go to the movies and at least see one good movie. Oh! How could I forget sledding? I really can’t wait to go sledding with her because I love sledding. It’s so much fun and it’ll be even more fun with her.
It’s really weird, me being with Kenzie (my girlfriend) for this long because I always thought that I’d be one of those guys that would just date around and have fun 24/7. Not saying that I don’t have fun with her or anything because I have more fun with her than anyone else I know but I just can’t believe that I’d feel like this for anyone until I was old or something. I find it really ironic because of the fact that I never wanted to be serious with anyone. I always put my friends first and now I find myself putting McKenzie before anyone else. Even myself. I know I’m being immature because the chances of us staying together are really low but that’s ok im going to stay on this ride as long as possible. I’m just going to be live life and love it before it ends and who knows maybe it won’t end. I can’t go sabotaging things before they go through the course or things.
